Yesterday, Ki Suk Han was tragically struck and killed by a subway train in Midtown Manhattan after being thrown onto the tracks by an angry and perhaps mentally disturbed panhandler. We could spend all day debating the actions of the New York Post photographer whose horrifying photo of Han shortly before his death ran on the paper's front page today. What cannot be debated is this: the New York Post's online commenters are some of the world's most... interesting people.

Not racist at all Peter, go to any major city and look at the black homeless hanging around the Greyhound bus depots, they look like they want to kill you if you make eye contact with them. So Christopher was making a true assessment.

No men on the platform had the balls to grab this scum bag, there had to be several men there? This is why all commuters should carry a small handgun, legally or not...better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6....No jury will convict you!

Media criticism

If this had been the "Times", we would only have gotten a description of the killer's T-shirt, sneakers and cap, with no mention of his race.

This is Obama's America. Expect more of the same. I predict the ACLU will step in to try to sue anyone who rebuffs agressive panhandlers.

Clever repartee

As a Libtard will say, Let's ban Subways!

No let's not. When subways and trains kill, it's a tragedy and accident. When guns kill, it's just doing its job.

My neoghbor's wife picked up the back end of a 1985 Cadillac Fleetwood Brough off of her husband on a steep driveway after it fell off of the stand jack and hydrallic jack that he had it up on. He suffered severe injuries but was able to drag himself out from under the car. She herniated her heart but saved her hubby's life. She is not a big woman. Get the point?

And there were, of course, so many New York Post commenters using this tragedy to mock Bob Costas' call for gun control that we simply could not include them all.
